The Ability to send Undead away from you and your party. If the undead being turned is significantly less powerful than the cleric, then it is destroyed rather than turned.

[edit] Turn undead mechanics

Turning undead consists of the following checks:[unverified]

1. Turning check: A charisma check (1d20 + your charisma modifier) determines the hit dice of the most powerful enemy you can affect (see table below)[unverified].

2. Turning damage: Total number of hit dice you can affect is 2d6 + effective cleric level + charisma modifier[unverified]

Destroying undead: If you have twice as many effective cleric levels (or more) as the undead have hit dice, you destroy any that you would normally turn[unverified]


Turning check result Highest hit dice turned
up to 0 Cleric's Level - 4
1-3 Cleric's Level - 3
4-6 Cleric's Level - 2
7-9 Cleric's Level - 1
10-12 Cleric's Level
13-15 Cleric's Level + 1
16-18 Cleric's Level + 2
19-21 Cleric's Level + 3
22+ Cleric's Level + 4
